The box-to-box midfielder reopened the fracture site of his fifth metatarsal in the game against Hednesford on Saturday. Cadman injured the metatarsal earlier in the campaign and the latest set-back is expected to keep him out for between four and six weeks.

The 19-year-old has been impressive in the last two games and played a key role as Harrogate put together a 3-2 win in the Hednesford tie. In Cadman’s absence, Harrogate know that a victory would take them back into the National League North play-off places.
